ABSTRACTFirst principles calculations based on gradient corrected density functional theory are carried out to understand the electronic structure and mechanisms responsible for desorption of hydrogen from Ti doped and vacancy containing sodium-alanate (NaAlH4). The energy necessary to remove a hydrogen atom from Ti doped NaAlH4 is significantly smaller than that from pristine NaAlH4 irrespective of whether Ti substitutes the Na or the Al site. However, the presence of Na and Al vacancies is shown to play an even more important role: The removal of hydrogen associated with both Na and Al vacancies is found to be exothermic. It is suggested that this role of vacancies can be exploited in the design and synthesis of complex light metal hydrides suitable for hydrogen storage.

AbstractWe have calculated electronic structure, energetics and migration for hydrogen and hydrogen complexes in GaN employing state-of-the-art first-principles calculations. Using these results in combination with previous detailed investigations about native defects we have calculated the concentration of hydrogen and dopants for different growth conditions. Our results reveal a fundamental difference in the behavior of hydrogen in p-type and n-type material. In particular, we explain why hydrogen has little effect on donor impurities and why H concentrations are low in n-type GaN. We discuss why hydrogen is beneficial for acceptor incorporation in GaN, and identify the limitations of this process.
